i'm sorry by Islamabad's home grown serving on the charts for 3 weeks straight!

Co-written and performed by two incredible voices and produced by industry giant
Sarmad Ghafoor, ‘i’m sorry’ is a genuine apology, where everything is, for once, said
right!

The track originated as a conceptual spark from Natasha, which was then handed to Uzair,
who crafted the song’s infectious, standout chorus. Seeking to bridge the gap between
vulnerability and a modern groove, they brought the demo to Sarmad Ghafoor.

Sarmad reimagined the soundscape as a "Pop meets Old-School R&B" anthem, resulting in
a lush confession that perfectly elevates the chemistry between the two characters. It is the
quintessential apology where, for once, everything is said exactly right.
